Put that, put that, put that up your wall
A D E
That this isn't country at all
F# A ({E E A E}) F# A B
Raving station, beside yourself
{same as verse above}
Keep me out of country in the word
Deal the porch is leading us absurd.
Push that, push that, push that to the hull
That this isn't nothing at all.
Straight off the boat, where to go?
E A E A
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
E A E A
Radio Free Europe
Beside defying media too fast
Instead of pushing palaces to fall
Put that, put that, put that before all
That this isn't fortunate at all
Raving station, beside yourself
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
Radio Free Europe, radio.
Bsus4 C# Bsus4 C#
Decide yourself, calling all of the medias too fast
Keep me out of country in the word
Disappoint is into us absurd
Straight off the boat, where to go?
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
